It’s F-15E right? I am surprised. i thought that it cannot maneuver and flies like Tornado.
why would you think that lol? it’s an F-15 with even more powerful engines
Because it’s even heavier and has those CFTs increasing drag
While it’s an agile aircraft for what it does it’s not really known for it’s maneuverability. More or less every pilots who flies an E model Eagle (or against it) says so.
it is a normally a PESA (since standard 3, which in game is a mix between -3 and -4), have been made on a similar basis than RDY, to replace the previous mechanical Agave (but both can be mounted on, when one is in maintenance)

It’s heavier than a C-Eagle and less agile, but it’s still a hell of a lot more manuverable than people give it credit for. The -229 engines in particular more than make up for any weight difference between the two types.
For this particular airshow, the wing pylons are completely removed, which decreases the drag cause by the CFTs significantly, and I can almost guarantee the CFTs were locked out prior to refuel so its running less fuel weight than a full upped C model as well.
Nice pitch up rate and video, but short.

He expalins pretty much everything.
F-15 should be 12.7 BR in RB/SB.
Remove 9m, remove 7m. 11.7-12.0 with 9J and 7f.

In this case it will perfectly fill the gap between F-4E an future F-15C which definitely will have max br. And will be USAF line counterpart for F-14 from USN line.
9 J?
bruh that will make it j35ex with radar missiles
F-15 is too good to be sit at 11.7-12.0 even with that loadout.
-Has insane flight performance
-Has really good radar and RWR which gives amazing awareness
-Has tons of countermeasures
-Has 8 missiless
-Has Vulcan with 900+ ammo which is one of the best gun with insane amount of ammunition
İf anything F-15 should’ve been 12.7 from the beginning, if i can perform with Mirage4000 at top tier with worse radar( it doesnt have all aspect PD mode) and with less countermeasures im pretty sure F-15 will be fine.

Not even close.
Even with 9J’s it will wipe the floor and J35XS can only dream to have such performance and survivability.
With that kind of reasoning, I could bring many other aircraft up to BR higher than its efficiency level and just say ‘It will be fine’. If there are any issues with Mirage 4k, everyone should create a separate topic for it
F-15 stays at 12.3 due to Numbers of incompetent USA pilots.
İt has nothing to do with plane itself.

Unless the F15A receives better Fox1 or Fox3 missile , both I and many other players will never agree with that opinion. Too many people are tired of using AIM7s, no one is happy about being forced to use them at 12.7 and later 13.3.
İts normal considering many of of you cant close the missile gap with their skill so you need equal Fox-3 missiles with better flight performance,awareness and more survivability.
İf anything this shows how incompetent of general F-15 playerbase.
Btw according to your service record you dont even a have single top tier aircraft, how can you make a comment of something you dont have in the first place.
Guess its a troll account.
